Wait List Process Fall 2009
The Office of Housing and Residence Life reserved approximately 1750 spaces for new VSU students for 2009-2010. All the freshman female spaces were claimed as of May 20; therefore, we began the wait list process for freshman females. All students who have not completed the online application for Housing yet may apply online to be on the wait list via this link http://www.valdosta.edu/it/eas/sis/. (Note: Once there, click on “Student & Financial Aid” and they should see the “Apply for Housing” link below the “View Housing Information” link when using Banner self-service.) There is no charge to be placed on the wait list.
Students placed on the wait list will be able to find out their status by logging into Banner to view the housing page. There is no guarantee that being on a wait list will ultimately result in an offer to move; however, Housing will work until opening to fill all students on the wait list who still desire a 2009-2010 placement. Wait list room offers will be made via phone call and/or email sent to your valdosta.edu email address. You only have 24 hours to accept an offer from the time it is sent, so please review your messages and/or email frequently.
Wait list students who are offered a space and accept the offer must complete the online application process with payment for $325 ($300 serves as a refundable deposit after all outstanding debts to VSU are accounted for and the residents permanently checks out of Housing) by the stated time in the phone call and/or email. Names of residents who accept a new space are removed from the wait list. Residents who refuse an offered space or fail to respond within 24 hours after notification will have their name removed from the wait list.
In extreme cases, the Office of Housing and Residence Life reserves the right to make an administrative room change into a vacant space, independent of the wait list, when it deems such a change necessary.
